Oriflame Professional Blush Brush Review

Hi everyone,

Finally the rain Gods have smiled upon Mumbai and the weather has become pleasant unlike the hot days in the month of May. This weather is the perfect time for sipping a hot cup of masala tea, What say? Coming to today's review, I am a huge fan of make up brushes and I am always on the look out for something new which of course is on the affordable side - the more the merrier. Today I shall be talking about a make up brush which I have been using for quite sometime now. It is called the Oriflame Professional Blush Brush. Let us find out more about this brush in my review.

Product Description:

Made of goat hair with wooden handle but these are obtained from animals without causing any harm or death. Also Oriflame does not use any ingredients which could be derived from dead animals.

The Oriflame blush brush comes in a complete black body with a bit of shimmer finish on it which makes it look classy and sophisticated. It has a long wooden handle which I like and I feel it makes you look like a pro while using them :) As I mentioned earlier that the bristles are made of goat hair but it has not been by making by hurting any animal. The bristles may not be the softest in the world but they are good enough to buff in and blend the blush you may use and yes you can use it to blend a cream blush too.

You can also use this to apply foundation using buffing motion. I did watch this technique being talked about my Wayne Goss from gossmakeupartist on Youtube. The brush is pinched at the tip of the brush which does not make the brush extra fluffy and just the right shape to fit into the apples of the cheek. Some may argue it is a bit small but I find it perfect as it gives much controlled application. On my first wash I did find the brush shed one or two hair but not much after that. I have read reviews in the past where people have said that it is a bit scratchy well it may not be the softest brush ever but it is soft enough and I would differ from the opinion of others. It does do a decent job, inexpensive and is easily available through Oriflame representatives or even online sites.

The Good:

Easily available.

Inexpensive.

Looks stylish and professional.Can be used for powder & cream blushes too.

Does a decent job of blending.

Bristles are soft enough to work with.

Cruelty free brand.

The not so Good:

Did shed 1 - 2 hair on first wash. Wish it did not shed at all.

Although it is a cruelty free brand I wish they did use animal hair at all.

May not be the softest brush you have used.

Rating: 3.8/5

Oriflame Blush Brush is a decent option if you are looking for an inexpensive brush which can be easily obtained sitting in the comfort of your homes because it is available online and also most representatives are ready to ship it at your door step. I recommend you to get one and try it for the price because a woman cannot have too many make up brushes..Lol

Nice review dear... i own some oriflame brushes, not the best quality but definitely on the affordable side and very handy. Do try their double ended brushes, very useful.Check out my travel diary and OOTDs at my blog http://divadiaries.in/travel-diary-ootds/
